Flux<br />
Time pops perennial,<br />
On petaled fruit-bud bursts.<br />
Tender leaves unfurled,<br />
Awaken sleep<strong>in</strong>g thirst.<br />
Bones of w<strong>in</strong>ter stands,<br />
Bathed <strong>in</strong> sunlight’s reign;<br />
Blush a maiden green,<br />
Hedgerow to the gra<strong>in</strong>.<br />
Blackbirds dive entw<strong>in</strong>ed,<br />
Insistent evolutes;<br />
Ribbons to the earth,<br />
In flutters of salute.<br />
Life taps the pedestal<br />
At stillness <strong>in</strong> conduct;<br />
The <strong>in</strong>strumental m<strong>in</strong>gle, of,<br />
Sweet season <strong>in</strong> its flux.<br />
Squeals from the branch,<br />
Feathered anthem drench;<br />
Sound droplets spilt, pour<br />
Weary heart its quench.<br />

Roots dr<strong>in</strong>k up full;<br />

Meristems reach out,<br />
Newly bark uncloaked.<br />
